As we learn more about Resident Evil 8: Village , a significant portion of the original rumors have proved accurate, and while that’s exciting news for the next-generation sequel, it gives far more credence to another project rumored to be in the works at Capcom. The success of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 immediately led to speculation that a remake of the genre-defining Resident Evil 4 would be the next game in line after Resident Evil 8 . Based on the Resident Evil 8 announcement, let’s take a look at how the rumors stacked up in the end and what that could mean for Resident Evil 4 Rema
Next to major first-party titles like Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Horizon: Forbidden West , one of the biggest new game announcements from the PlayStation 5 gameplay event was the reveal of Resident Evil 8: Village . Just like Resident Evil 3 Remake before it, Resident Evil 8 rumors have been floating around online for the majority of the year, revealing a ton of new aspects about the game from its medieval castle setting to the introduction of werewolves, and a redesigned Chris Redfi
Unfortunately, that’s all we currently know about the Resident Evil 4 Remake but it’s safe to say that the rumors have some merit given the track record of the sources and the ongoing accuracy we’ve seen so far with Resident Evil 8 . There’s still plenty to learn about the next-generation sequel ahead of its 2021 launch, and according to the official website, players can expect the next update for Resident Evil: Village to occur sometime in August 2
For the most part, Resident Evil 4′ s only connection to the rest of the main backbone of Resident Evil’s lore was in Albert Wesker’s small role in the game. Albert Wesker had a lot of long history with Umbrella and is a longtime iconic villain of the Resident Evil franchise, both serving as an agent for them and turning his back on them later
The market for Resident Evil remasters is provably profitable and less expensive to produce than a ground-up remake. To satisfy fans’ hunger for an updated Code Veronica experience, Capcom can release an “ultimate edition” of the game. Capcom could improve on the already enhanced visuals from the 2011 HD remaster, adding more detailed textures and character models while improving the frame-rate. And if this sells well, Capcom can finally get to work on the remake for next gen conso
Not long after the release of Resident Evil 3 Remake , speculation turned into rumors that Resident Evil 4 Remake was already in the works and would be released after Resident Evil 8 . The first rumors claimed that the remake had been in development since 2018 and environmental storytelling that Capcom was planning to release the game in 2022. M-Two, who previously helped with Resident Evil 3 , is leading the development ccording to these rumors and will be supported by Capcom’s internal Resident Evil 2 Remake and Devil May Cry V teams, giving the game a larger development team than both of the previous remak
This latest revelation redefines the backbone of Umbrella’s history of experiments by making the T-Virus, found in West Africa, and the Las Plagas parasite, found in Spain, a culminating factor. For example, the G-Virus , and everything that was created from its lineage, would not have been made possible without the Las Plagas virus, since it was partially created through an accidental fusion of the T-Virus and the Nemesis Parasite that was experimented on Umbrella’s test subject, Lisa Tre
Technically, Luigi’s Mansion 3 was not a first-party game when it came out since it was developed by Next Level Games. However, as the studio has been working exclusively with Nintendo for years and, in 2021, was purchased by the latter, Luigi’s Mansion 3 is essentially a first-party ti
Capcom doesn’t have to keep altering beloved classics. Instead of keeping fans locked in REmake territory, why not focus on bringing us into the next generation of Resident Evil with RE8 and beyond? The entertainment industry, whether video games or movies, should try and take more risks rather than constantly relying on remakes. It’s getting to be a bit too m
However, the one thing that disappointed fans the most is the content of the original that never made it to the remake. Several locations such as the Raccoon City park, the Undead factory, and the Clock Tower were either scrapped, replaced, or unexplored. A few enemies such as the giant worm, spiders, and many more were also not featured in the remake. Of course, the overall plot is still the same, but fans were not happy that the Resident Evil 3 remake was split in two with the first half being the main game, and the second half featuring Resident Evil Resistance, which some fans blame to be the reason for Resident Evil 3’s demise. Despite the criticisms though, Capcom said that while the commercial performance of Resident Evil 3 remake pales in comparison to its predecessor, it is what the studio expected, given that RE2 has always been more popular than R
